Rebirth: I'm filming extra scenes on the set

Chapter 173 Hong Kong’s most talented director, Wang Jiawei.

A few days later.

Wong Pak-ming brings director Yip Wai-shun and protagonist Zhen Zaidan to meet Chen Cheng again.

This time, when Han Sanping was in trouble, only Chen Cheng was involved.

But even though Chen Cheng was alone, when Chen Cheng arrived at the destination, Zhen Zaidan stood up and greeted him immediately: "Brother Cheng."

"Brother Cheng?"

Chen Cheng was stunned.

Seeing Zhen Zaidan looking at him with a smile, Chen Cheng said, "Zaidan, I'm younger than you, just call me by my name."

Just saying this.

But Zhen Zaidan did not dare to call Chen Cheng by his name, and instead respectfully called him Director Chen.

"Director Chen, this is the director of our "The Grandmaster, Ip Man", Director Ip Wai-shun."

Ye Weixin also hurriedly greeted Chen Cheng: "Director Chen, I have long heard of your great name."

Chen Cheng replied: "Director Ye, your filming of "SPL" is very good."

Yes.

This Ye Weixin is the director of SPL.

Later, he also filmed "Flash Point".

But a pity.

Although Sha Po Lang was very famous in his previous life.

But his box office is not high, it can even be said to be terrible.

As for the fuse, the box office of 3000 million is also a huge loss.

It was not until he filmed "Ip Man" that he was able to gain a firm foothold in Hong Kong.

But now Yip Wai-sun has just taken over Ip Man.

He also didn't know how Ip Man's film would turn out.

At this time, he, like Zhen Zaidan, felt a little lacking in confidence when facing Chen Cheng.

Although she is young.

There are several top-notch crews that can be handled.

Furthermore.

The films he directed himself were also terrifying. The box office of "Secret" exceeded 1 million, which made Ye Weixin incomparable.

of course.

There is another identity.

Chen Cheng is the producer of their drama.

He is already very capable, and is also a producer. His qualifications are even more terrifying, and he is also the representative of the investors.

Who would dare to disobey such a producer?
"Director Chen, you're too polite. The box office of the previous films we shot wasn't very good. We're shooting Ip Man this time, so I hope Director Chen can give us some pointers."

"I don't deserve your advice. My current role is just a supervisor, and I'm here to help everyone. If you need anything in the future, just let me know."

"Don't dare, don't dare."

Although Chen Cheng spoke modestly.

but.

Here, even Huang Baiming didn't dare to do anything to Chen Cheng.

It's even more impossible to tell him anything.

But after all, Chen Cheng didn't have a good impression of Zhen Zaidan yesterday. After thinking about it, Huang Baiming said, "Zaidan, have you read the script?"

"Director Huang, I've seen it."

"What do you think of the character of Ip Man?"

"Director Huang, this is what I think. The Ip Man in the script seems to be a dull man, and he is afraid of his wife, but he has a lovely side. He has martial arts skills, but he doesn't like fighting and killing. He finally takes action when he can no longer bear it. This kind of role is also different from those martial arts masters. At the same time, it is also different from the series of roles I have played before, and even from my previous style."

Zhen Zaidan said as he looked at Chen Cheng.

Actually.

He was not saying this to Wong Pak Ming, he was saying this to Chen Cheng.

Although theoretically, Chen Cheng is the producer.

The producer generally does not interfere with the production aspects, let alone the actors' performances, but this is just the general producer.

Some powerful producers often control even the directors and producers.

Wong Pak Ming is a big shot in the Hong Kong circle, so Chen Cheng would not do anything to him.

But as for the lead actor Zhen Zaidan and the director Yip Wai-hsin, it’s hard to say.

During the October Siege, Chen Cheng beat Zhen Zaidan up, and he still has some psychological trauma.

This time facing Chen Cheng again, he did not seem so confident.

But fortunately.

Zhen Zaidan has been in the circle for decades and still has his own professional vision.

Then, he added: "This role is also quite challenging to my previous style. In future filming, I will try my best to play this role well..."

Chen Cheng nodded.

Huang Baiming breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Chen Cheng nod, and said, "Zai Dan, you have to ask Director Chen for advice on acting in the future, especially in the literary drama. Your previous fighting scenes were good, but your literary dramas were not very good. Although Director Chen is our producer, you also know his directing level."

“Even Director Kexin admires Director Chen’s directing skills.”

Zhen Zaidan was excited.

he knows.

Chen Cheng's nod also meant that he had finally passed this level.

"Director Chen, are you busy these days?"

After Zhen Zaidan finished his questions, Wong Pak Ming felt much better: "In a while, our Grandmaster Ip Man will start casting auditions. Director Chen, you come too."

Chen Cheng shook his head: "Director Huang, I will not participate in the casting. I have other things to deal with."

The reason why I shook my head.

One is that casting seems to be a good thing, but it is really a very tiring job.

There may be dozens or even hundreds of auditions a day.

another.

Chen Cheng is the producer.

You don't need to be responsible for production.

Therefore, Chen Cheng does not need to participate in the audition.

of course.

It’s fine for Chen Cheng to participate, and Wong Pak Ming will not have any objection.

But since Wong Pak Ming has called the leading actor and the director over today, it would be too overbearing for Chen Cheng to participate in the audition.

Rather than this, it is better not to participate.

According to the previous life.

This drama is pretty good.

Chen Cheng didn't interfere much.

Through the role of Ip Man, Zhen Zaidan completely got rid of the embarrassment of being just a "action star".

"Director Chen..."

Afterwards, everyone chatted for a while.

Chen Cheng left first on the pretext that he had something else to do.

And after Chen Cheng left.

obvious.

Everyone should be more relaxed.

Ye Weixin took a sip of tea and said, "Director Huang, Director Chen has a very strong aura."

"Oh, you think so, otherwise, I wouldn't have asked you to come over."

Huang Baiming said: "If you don't pass this test today, the rest of the filming will be a problem."

"I know."

Ye Weixin replied.

Zhen Zaidan next to him took over the conversation: "There's nothing we can do. He's too strong. When we were filming The Besieged City, Director Chen punched me hard a few times."

"Really?"

"You thought it was fake? But it's also my fault. I figured it out after being beaten up by Director Chen."

"Can Director Chen beat you?"

"Director Ye, Director Chen is a martial arts instructor by profession, what do you think?"

"Ok."

Ye Weixin was a little surprised.

However, Wong Pak Ming consoled them, "Don't feel too burdened. Although Director Chen is the representative of the investors, since he is the producer, he will not interfere with your filming. Director Chen is involved in all aspects. If you are unsure in the future, you can really ask Director Chen for advice."

"Ah."

Both of them nodded.

……

Chen Cheng is actually fine.

To say something.

That means I still need to finish the next few days of classes at Beijing Film Academy.

In a few days, Beijing Film Academy will have its summer vacation.

After the summer vacation.

Entering the senior year.

Once you graduate from your senior year, you will be a Beijing Film Academy alumnus.

Thinking of this, Chen Cheng really cherishes his time on campus.

But Chen Cheng wanted to study hard.

in the afternoon.

However, Vice President Wang Song found Chen Cheng.

"Dean, are you looking for me?"

"Chen Cheng, sit down."

Wang Song poured Chen Cheng a glass of water and said, "Summer vacation is coming up in a few days. Where are you going?"

"I don't know, I haven't decided yet."

"After the summer vacation, it will be your senior year. What are your thoughts on your senior year?" "???"

Chen Cheng was a little confused.

"Then I'll be frank. Have you ever thought about taking the postgraduate entrance examination?"

"Uh……"

Chen Cheng touched his head.

He had never really thought about taking the postgraduate entrance examination.

"have not thought."

Chen speaks the truth.

But Wang Song was not in a hurry: "Then you can think about it now."

Chen Cheng had a headache: "It's just that the postgraduate entrance examination is too difficult. I may not have time."

"Who said the postgraduate entrance exam is difficult?"

“That’s not what everyone else says.”

"Others are just trying to scare you into not taking the exam, so they can pass it, right?"

"Uh...it seems to make sense."

Wang Song nodded: "So, why don't you give it a try? Some things look difficult, but you can pass them in one test."

"Forget it, it still takes a lot of time."

"I……"

Wang Song was irritated by Chen Cheng: "You little brat, okay, don't take the exam, just go ahead and get admitted to graduate school."

"Ah, to be admitted to graduate school."

"Why, you don't want to continue your studies?"

"I am willing to do so...will it violate the rules or something?"

"What's wrong with that? You're an outstanding student at Beijing Film Academy. What's wrong with getting into graduate school? Who dares to say anything? Even if it's published in the media, no one dares to say anything."

"Okay, Dean, I'll think about it."

Leave the dean's office.

Unexpectedly, not long after Chen Cheng went out, he received a call from Tian Zhuangzhuang.

"Chen Cheng, where is he?"

"I just sat with the dean for a while."

"Did he tell you about the admission to graduate school?"

"Correct."

"I'm telling you, don't listen to him."

"Director Tian, do you mean that I don't want to be admitted to graduate school?"

"No, what I mean is that you shouldn't apply to the acting department for postgraduate study. You are a great director, why do you always focus on acting? You should apply to our directing department for postgraduate study."

"It seems that changing departments is not that easy."

"Who said it's not getting better? It's getting better."

"But no matter what others say, it's impossible to change departments."

"Silly boy, that's what others are trying to trick you into doing. They're telling you not to transfer to another department, so there won't be less competition, right?"

“That makes a lot of sense.”

Chen Cheng suddenly discovered.

Whether it is Dean Wang Song or Director Tian Zhuangzhuang, their thinking is very advanced.

"Well, you come to our directing department. Let me tell you, there aren't many people in our department, so the competition is low. Not only will I guarantee you admission to graduate school, I'll also let you study for a master's and doctoral degree simultaneously... How do you think?"

"Director Tian, let me think about it."

"Okay, I'll ask you again tonight."

"puff……"

Chen Cheng burst into tears: "Director Tian, please give me more time to think about it."

"I've already given you several hours... What else do you want? Okay, okay, I'll give you three days. I'll ask you again in three days."

Tian Zhuangzhuang said, looking as if he was defeated by Chen Cheng.

……

Time flies.

In a blink of an eye.

Summer vacation is here again.

Recently.

Chen Cheng is indeed considering whether to pursue a master's or doctoral degree.

However, these days, Chen Cheng still hasn't thought it through.

This is not to say that I am against studying for a master's or doctoral degree.

It is also good to improve your academic qualifications and learn more knowledge.

But he also felt that reading for too long might waste too much time.

On the other hand, the auditions for "The Grandmaster, Ip Man" have already begun.

Everything went smoothly.

Even though it was an audition.

But before the audition, Wong Pak Ming had already drawn up a list of key names.

Just choose from these lists.

of course.

Chen Cheng did not ask about the audition.

He is the producer.

There is no need to control everything.

But Chen Cheng didn't ask.

On the other hand, the already confirmed heroine Xiong Dailin said for some reason that she was going to visit Chen Cheng.

This made Chen Cheng a little confused.

What are you visiting me for?
I am the producer, not the director.

But since they had already come, Chen Cheng couldn't just turn the door away and refuse them.

So Xiong Dailin was arranged to work in a coffee shop near Beijing Film Academy.

"Director Chen, this is our first meeting, please take care of me."

Xiong Dailin started out as a model.

With a good figure and good looks, she participated in the filming of the music video for the song "Son of the Wind" by superstar Aaron Kwok as early as 06.

It is said that the two fell in love at first kiss.

But Chen Cheng, who was familiar with later generations, knew that their relationship eventually ended in separation.

"I'm not the director. I'm the producer this time. If you can take care of me, that's fine. What do you like to eat? I'll have the logistics department take special care of you during the filming. If you're not afraid of getting fat, I can even prepare a midnight snack for you."

"Pfft... Director Chen, you are so humorous."

Xiong Dailin didn't expect this.

When he met Chen Cheng for the first time, Chen Cheng spoke to him in this way.

"Haha, that's the only way I can take care of you. If you take care of anything else, it will be beyond my authority."

Chen Cheng didn't know why Xiong Dailin came to see him.

Besides, he was not familiar with Xiong Dailin.

The circle is too complicated.

If you can't move your legs when you see a beautiful woman, you will get into a lot of romantic scandals.

"Any thing else?"

After finishing a cup of coffee, Chen Cheng prepared to leave.

Xiong Dailin was a little nervous.

Seeing Xiong Dailin looking somewhat at a loss, Chen Cheng said, "Don't be nervous. I'm not a tiger. I don't eat people. You don't need to come to visit me specially. Just shoot the movie well. I think the heroine you play should have a good performance."

"Thank you, Director Chen."

Looking at Chen Cheng's back, Xiong Dailin whispered, "It seems that Director Chen is not a very strong person."

……

Time passes slowly.

"The Grandmaster, Ip Man" is also progressing continuously.

Huang Baiming is very efficient in his work.

After the auditions for all the characters were finished, he was almost ready to start filming.

but.

before starting up.

However, the crew next door started a verbal war against "The Grandmaster, Ip Man".

As for which crew is next door.

Skillful.
